    Most films today are lazy, repetitive, trite, safe, and boring. Even if there is an original idea, the script is beaten into the same old existing shape. It’s like seeing the same statue a million times with different colors.

      drop the “today” and it’s still a true statement

        That’s false, I think. This dude did the maths on “original” movies and their number as well as revenue has decreased drastically since 2005. I can’t find the other source, but another dude did an analysis starting from the 70s and it looks even more bleak. So, at the moment, we are in the worst time for original movies.
